Re: 115th Congress. In Bridge, Can Hearts be Trumped? In Spades!
It's almost better at this point he gets elected. However, if the Dem does manage to win having that vote the next few years wouldn't be a bad thing.
Reminds me of the Todd Akin situation. Party had no leverage over him because he wasn't "their guy". Plus at his age (Akin I think was in his mid 60's, Moore is 70) there's no option of dropping out, lying low for awhile and then launching a comeback in a few years. Let's say no other women come forward and Moore rides this out and gets elected. How are Itch and team possibly going to deal with him? It'd be like if Dennis Hastert won his old Congressional seat back.
